GHIRLANDAIO, Domenico: Madonna and Child Enthroned between Angels and Saints
Gilded throne and rich ultramarine frame a serene Madonna cradling Christ Child, flanked by symmetrically arranged angels and saints rendered in Ghirlandaio's luminous technique. This altarpiece exemplifies early Renaissance devotional ideals—hierarchical composition and jewel-toned palette emphasize divine order and spiritual transcendence.
